Our favorite Seattle rapper, Macklemore, can now add shoe designer to his illustrious resume (along with his multiple GRAMMYs and chart-topping hits, of course.)

Macklemore got to collaborate with Nike on a pair of Air Jordans, which is certainly a pretty cool side job. The bad news is… seems like people aren’t really diggin’ them. The shoes are pink salmon and according to a post on the rapper’s Instagram account, it’s a nod to the PNW:

“I’m proud to announce the unveiling of my “Northwest King Salmon” Melo’s… Never dreamed I’d have an opportunity like this.”

Whether you dig the shoes, you have to admit, the selfie with Michael Jordan himself is pretty sweet.
